mathematical modeling of onion drying process using hot air dryer
Authors
abstract
the main purpose of present paper is the modeling of onion drying process and investigation of experimental data of onion drying obtained with using a hot air dryer. therefore some empirical and regression models have been considered to fit experimental data. the investigation of the experimental data shows the onion drying happens only in falling rate zone. the experimental data have been fitted with 12 emprical models and 74 regression models. the results showed that at 60, 70, 80 and 90 , “midilli-kucuk” model is the best model. the results obtaine from regression model shows that the best model is 10th order polynomial. overall, it can be concluded the best polynomial model is slightly better than the best empirical model.

Drying kinetics of coir pith was studied and the properties of compressed coir pith discs were analyzed. Coir pith particles were oven dried in the range of temperatures from 100 to 240 °C and the rehydration ability of compressed coir pith was evaluated by finding the volume expansion. The optimum drying temperature was found to be 140 °C. Hot air drying was carried out to examine the drying k...
